César Marroquín , 29 , was deported from the U.S. on the day he was supposed to have his first court appearance.

He said he fled Guatemala after being the victim of aggression and kidnapping.

ICE said it was an "administrative error" while his case was still open.

The authorities and his attorney are now working on his readmission.
